, Jun 10th 2012 Discuss [0]

Microsoft is a global company, so sometimes the software giant has to tailor its message depending on what region it's in, but even cultural differences can't possibly describe what was going through the minds of whoever set up a recent developer event in Norway. Microsoft is now playing damage control over a bizarre and borderline offensive dance routine that was part of said event. Read The Full Story

FCC CEO spectrum keynote comes from an iPad

, May 8th 2012 Discuss [2]

This week FCC CEO Julius Genachowski spoke on the expansion of spectrum across the board to carriers and how "we need to see improvements in efficiency in networks and devices" across the board. This speech had many of the same talking points coming up that the FCC had spoken on several times before, with items like "We'll of course continue to monitor competition in the wireless industry and take action where necessary" being talking points. What's perhaps more interesting to Apple fans than any of this, strangely enough, is the fact that this entire speech was done from an iPad. Read The Full Story

, Mar 16th 2012 Discuss [6]

Today is the day Apple Stores across the USA, UK, Australia and a half dozen other countries open their doors to crowds of ravenous new iPad customers, the Mall of America’s hero store no exception to the rule. Here Apple has prepared plenty well for the line of 50 intrepid Apple fans in line with the first several gentlemen and ladies having entered the mall as early as 1AM this morning. The general consensus here appears to be that, like the iPhone 4S launch and the iPad 2 launch before that, customers have been sticking to online sales rather than braving the line for first-day adoption – this of course is great news for those lovers of the line, as no user will be turned away today here in Minnesota.
